MOMENTUS ANNOUNCES 2022 LAUNCH SERVICES AGREEMENT
WITH DANISH STUDENTS CUBESAT PROGRAM
SANTA CLARA, Calif.— August 5, 2021—Momentus Inc.
(“Momentus” or the “Company”), a U.S. commercial company that plans to offer transportation and in-space infrastructure
services, today announced a launch services agreement with the Danish Students CubeSat Program (DISCO).
The launch services agreement was formally signed earlier this year
and is focused on a mid-2022 launch and delivery of a 1U CubeSat to its low-Earth orbit destination aboard a Momentus Vigoride service
vehicle.
“Allowing students to conduct science in orbit challenges, energizes
and encourages a new generation of STEM advocates,” said Momentus Chief Revenue Officer Dawn Harms. “We’re looking forward to
helping the DISCO team achieve its mission objectives.”
The DISCO satellite will host a series of student experiments from
across a consortium of four Danish universities and serve as a communication station for radio amateurs around the world. One of the DISCO
team’s goals is to learn to use S-band frequencies for communications with the 1U satellite. This could allow subsequent DISCO satellites
to send much more significant amounts of data down to Earth.
“DISCO-1 will be the first in a series of hopefully many CubeSats
that we will launch in the DISCO program,” said Associate Professor at Aarhus University and leader of the DISCO project Christoffer
Karoff. “We are extremely happy for the collaboration with Momentus. They have been very helpful in guiding us through the complicated
process of launching a satellite.”
About Momentus
Momentus is a U.S. commercial space company that plans to offer in-space
infrastructure services, including in-space transportation, hosted payloads and in-orbit services. Momentus believes it can make new ways
of operating in space possible with its planned in-space transfer and service vehicles that will be powered by an innovative water plasma-based
propulsion system that is under development. The Company anticipates flying its first two Vigoride vehicles to Low Earth Orbit on
a third-party launch provider as early as June 2022, subject to receipt of appropriate government licenses and availability of slots on
its launch provider’s manifest.
About DISCO
DISCO is Denmark’s national CubeSat program and is a collaboration
between by Aalborg University, Aarhus University, University of Southern Denmark, IT University, the House of Natural Science and the
Danish Industry Foundation as well as a number of space companies to give students the opportunity to work with science and space technology
in a practical way with the goal of increasing the number of candidates from Danish universities with competencies within space.
